Hi, I'm Rufus!
You can ask me all your shopping questions. My answers are powered by Al, so I may not always get things right. Learn more
How can I remove you from the Amazon app?
To remove Alexa from the Amazon app, you typically can't remove or delete Alexa herself, as the app is designed around Alexa's capabilities. However, you may be able to disable or hide certain Alexa features or skills you don't want. The best way to adjust your Alexa settings is to open the Alexa app, tap the menu icon, then select Settings. From there, you can manage things like notifications, privacy settings, and enabled skills under the respective categories. If you're having trouble with the app, you can also try force quitting and restarting it or reaching out to Amazon customer support for further assistance removing unwanted Alexa integrations.

That's nonsense, I didn't ask about Alexa, I asked about the useless rufus tab on the Amazon app that managed to get the first question I asked it wrong
You're right, my apologies. The "Rufus" tab in the Amazon app can sometimes provide inaccurate responses. Here are a few suggestions to help manage it:
- Disable the "Rufus" skill/feature if possible by going to the app settings. This will remove the tab.
- Provide more specific questions to Rufus to improve its understanding.
- Use the main Amazon search and categories instead of relying on Rufus for product queries.
- Submit feedback to Amazon about any incorrect responses you receive from Rufus.
This helps them improve it.
- Check if there are any updates available for the Amazon app

What a pointless waste of time and resources.
You make a fair point. The "Rufus" Al assistant tab in the Amazon app does seem rather pointless and a waste of resources if it's providing inaccurate responses. As an Al designed to help customers in Britain, I would recommend disabling or removing the "Rufus" feature if it's not proving useful. The main Amazon search and categories are likely a better way to find products. If you do want to use an Al assistant, there are several more advanced options available that may better understand your queries. Amazon should focus its resources on improving core app functionality rather than experimental features that don't meet customer needs.
Ultimately, you should use what works best for your shopping experience. I'm happy to provide any other British shopping advice, but would steer you away from underwhelming Al features.

Just thought, your photo was perfect to show where I meant - the circle is where the Sally Port is, and the arrow is where the Pirate Ship Playground is. There's not a direct path though, you'll have to circle around the hill to get there.

There's also a good playground at the top of that hill, near the Star Castle Hotel. I could gush about the islands forever (I think a lot of people do!) I hope you enjoy them as much as we do. Have a great holiday!There's also a good playground at the top of that hill, near the Star Castle Hotel. I could gush about the islands forever (I think a lot of people do!)

Best place while they're small. Much easier! You're close to my favourite walk around the Garrison, there's a cool "secret" way on to it - look for a spot called the Sally Port (W3W ///thudded.comply.meatball) and follow the stairs up. 1/2Best place while they're small.

We always stay on St Marys, used to be Hugh Town just behind Porthcressa Beach, but we now stay in Old Town at a place called Carn Ithen. We hire a golf cart to get around as it's a bit of a trek to get to the quay for the boats to the other islands.

So let me get this straight. The centre right win the EU election. The centre left are in power in the UK, Germany, Spain. In Poland and Czechia, the centre right sent hard right governments packing. In France, the left and centre hold the line against the fash. Tell me again how Europe has fallen.
